Modeling Cell Motility

Cellular motility refers to the cell's movement in response to chemical signals. Many cellular functions rely on that movement, including cell differentiation, wound repair, embryonic development, angiogenesis, and tumor metastasis.

In this Teach Me in 10, Hilary Sherman, Senior Scientist at Corning Life Sciences, teaches us about the different steps of cell motility and gives important tips to optimize chemotaxis assays.
